Answer by E.P. for Ch-ch-ch-changes: Left nav, responsive design, & themes

Please reconsider your decision on voting buttons

The voting buttons are an ever-present aspect of a bunch of sites' graphical identity, and they pull a disproportionate amount of weight in making the theming feel like a complete skin rather than just some surface-level attributes. My main site has fairly bland voting arrows and they're really a joy to see in the sites that do have them.

It would be a real shame if these were lost:

Status: as per the follow-up thread, this is currently , and indeed

things like voting and favorite buttons are a core part of the Q&A experience that should be shared across the network. It was a mistake that we ever allowed for those to be themed.

so, you know... =(. I rather disagree with the "should be shared" aspect - instead, I see "site that has gorgeous voting buttons" as a strong indicator that I'm on a Stack Exchange site (with the associations that has regarding the quality of the content). But it appears that SE places less value on those aspects. Oh well.
